Sounds like we are on the same journey. I'm in the beginning of all this, haven't done scans or any of that yet. I know it's coming. Wish I had more support from the husband. Sigh. I wait to hear from you and hope all will continue to go well. Carol

I had symptoms for six months and found out through a blood test that an internist ran ; very next day I received a call from a nurse at the cancer center- two hours later was sitting in front of my hematologist telling me I have PV. Began treatment shortly afterward. Sorry you dont have more support from your husband. im a 59 yr old white male, no wife or gf and no kids but both of my parents are alive and have one sister; I get support through all of them fortunately . I also have a few supportive friends. This is my first support group and will be doing my first zoom meeting of blood cancers support group here in the Bay Area this Thursday evening.
